Nathaniel Hedge

Nathaniel Hedge III (1710–1795) was an English clockmaker based in Colchester in Essex.[1]

Hedge was apprenticed to the Colchester clockmaker John Smorthwaite in 1728 and married Smorthwaite's daughter Sarah in 1733.[1] Hedge went on to become a prosperous and highly respected clockmaker.[2]

Examples of Hedge's work can be found in the Mason collection at the Colchester Clock Museum.[3]
